When is it finished?

On January 30th, 2014, An international manga festival held in Angouleme, France, the person who claimed to be in charge of Asia region booths suddently came up to one of the Japan's booths and destroyed it completely in collusion with some S.Korea's participants while the charged Japanese lunched away from the booth. Those stolen and destroyed exhibitions were mangas which were created by Japanese manga artists aiming to refute claims from the South Korean government regarding so-called Comfort Women. In response to this brutal attack, Japanese participants are now talking to their lawyers to have their lawyers confirm all the details of those S.Koreans barbaric behaviors. Press men who happened to be there asked those attackers why they were doing this but they didn't answer anything instead they started cursing at Japanese around and calling their exhibitions "SHlT". Heard that this sneak attack was recorded by many people around, you will see how stupid they were on Youtube sooner. Your opinion? Demythologization of the myth of the Comfort Women: Part1. What actually happened http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7NrsofHGtT4 Un Japon Menacé Tome II : Sexe, Mensonges, et Femmes de Réconfort http://youtube.com/watch?v=xwk2rPjiSdA @Cabal Said it's just happened so it's no surprise you couldn't find anything for now. Anyway It's impressed about hearing you said "this is a false news" definitively just because you couldn't find by yourself anything supporting my claims. Will see what is true sooner. Anyway it's fair to say this: why don't you enlighten yourself about so called Comfort Women by listening to clclaims from the both sides; Japan and S.Korea. Fair and balance, which is the very yhing that' been missing over this issue:) You will want to watch the video in the links above.

to the UK? if possible could you give details of times and fares please
